The LATE RAILROAD DEAL.

The Richmond Whig, referring to
the recent purchase of the East TenN
nessee system of roads by the
West Point Terminal, says:
"There is little or no doubt that
the negotiations which haye been
pending for some time, between the
West Point Terminal mananage-
ment and the owners of the East
Tennessee Railroad, have resulted
in the acquisition of that road and
| its system for the Terminal Compav
ny, by the purchase Of a controlling
interest in the road. Through this
purchase and the recent victory in
Georgia, by which intimate friendly
relations were established with the
Georgia Central system, the West
Point Terminal people now control
one of the vast railroad systems of
the country and several important t
lines of steamships.
It is stated that the West Point
Terminal directors will issue $14,-
900, 900 of their stock, of which $10,>
100000 viii be given for Richmond
and Danyille outstanding stock, and
81, ,000, 900 for East Tennessee stock.
In addition the East Tennessee
stockholders are to get s., 10000 in
cash.
This new combination will, of
course, have an important bearing
upon the interests of the Norfolk
and Western Railroad, which cons
meets at Bristol with the East Ten
nessee, and from which it gets a
large amount of traffic. Whether
or not it will necessitate the extern
sion of the former road from Bristol
to Chattanooga, competing point,
as has been suggested, can only be
known in the future"

A number of Charlotte people have

Says the Murphy Balletin:- "Mr. Clabe
Walton, superintendent of construction
of the NJ. & N. Ga. r. R., spent Sunday
and part of Monday in our town. He re-
ports work progressing finely on his
road, and gays that he will move his
headquarters to Noda river, about five
miles from this place, some time next
month. AS soon as the weather moder-
ates the road will be pushed vigorously
to Murphy, and We may expect to see
the cars at this point by the beginning of

The Elizabeth City Falcon puts it thus
timely: "The Independents of Eastern
Carolina may take the fattering JUNCTION
to their souls (if they have any) that
their course is leading directly to the
abolition of the present system of county
government. And white man IN the
east who will turn his face against his
white brother, tear down the wall of
prosperity that protects the white and
black alike, putting aside all hope of
future material progress, checking the
blessing we have worked so hard to
obtain, is worse than the blackest radical
in the land, for he has the manliness to
avow openly and boldly what the poor
dodger of an Independent doesnot dare"

An Embarrassed Boarder.

Il honestly declare I never felt
so really ashamed in all my life,"
said the too-sweet travelling man to
a near acquaintance, "as [ did the

boarding up on Michigan avenue,
and, you know, I didn't happen to
think of the rent for two or three

girl, l,the landlady's daughter is. she
never plays the piano after 8 p. NJ,
andshe never talks about things
fellow can't understand. As l was
saying, I noticed a chilliness about
her-that made we want.to go to an

maybe I'd better shbw the young
lady some polite attention, so I
asked if she would go to the theatre

In Illinois a youth, being jealous,
gave his sweetheart mortal hurt and
with the same weapon slew himself.
In Connecticut poor lass, disconso-
late from loss of love, likewise made
away with herself. The young men
and, the young women who venture
out upon that roughest of the seas
of passion need to be as circumspect
as they can. The hot winds some
times blow a hurricane when little
Cupid is captain OF the craft; SO it is
well for those who sail with him to
watch the barometer and be ready
to doubleereef before the shrouds
rattle. Love used to be blind, but
there is no reason in this age oflogic
and .gold-rimmed specs why he
should continue to be so.

SHALL WE HAVE AN OPERA HOUSE =?
The present room used for an
Opera House in this place has been
of good service to Asheyille in the
past-it has given US a place in
which to witness the performances
of a number ofgood companies, and
its management have done all in
their power to make the house COM
Portable and to meet the demands
of the hour with the limited capaci
ties ut their command. But the
growth OF Asheyille, and the rails
road facilities which enables us to
command the appearance of the
best companies on the road, have
shown lamentable want in suit
able Opera Hall. A number of
places in the heart of the city have
been suggested at different times for
the erection of a building suited to
the purpose but they have been sold
off and are being built up. And.
now we know of but one suitable
place on which to erect an Opera
House, and this is the Schartle cor
uer, northeast Of court square. This
lot is some 80x216 feet, and drops
down from the west front to such an
extent as to make it in every respect
suited to the making of an Opera
Hall in the rear, with an easy as
cent to the seco d floor from the
west front, adm .ltting of a splendid
parquette, with galleries and private
boxes, and besides is open on every
sid s, there being a street on all four
side; and some eight or ten stores,
or market house in the College
street front, with offices over the
west front, could be put in the
building.
This property now belongs to the
Messrs. Rawls Bros, and by the exc
penditure of from $4,000 to $685.
600 thenecessary;buildings could be
placed on it. The whole could be
made to pay handsome percent
age, independent of the opera room,
on the investment, and we hope the
Messrs. Rawls will either build on
it to this end, or else form stock
latter we think can
be easily done. Asheville needs and
must have in the near future just
